Unpopular Opinions.

Re: Unpopular Opinions.

Welcome to the hypocrisy that is America, where its ok to be racist against whites.

Oh I know. Not trying to get off topic here, as I believe this to be a unpopular opinion; but it is quite rude.
The fact people love lumping white people together into a racist, rich, and privileged group irks me beyond anything else. Just because I have less melanin present in my genetic makeup does not mean I have any prejudices against certain races or have a better shot at life, and am given more power than others.

Do you live in America? Because people of color do experience greater struggles than caucasians. Just because you don't personally work to make it that way doesn't mean you get to ignore the reality of the times. Unemployment is greater among people of color so yeah, unless you think they're all sitting on their asses being lazy (AKA, racist), then you DO get a better shot at life -- at least in America.




Make a new thread for all I care but I had to say it.

Re: Unpopular Opinions.

My bigger point was NOT racism-just stating this before it get devolved too far. But the fact of blaming ME for something that happened several hundred years ago. People want to blame me and persecute me for something I actually did, then that's fine. I'll take the blame then and deal with the consequences I've earned through MY actions. However, I don't appreciate being judged by the actions of others who are long dead.

Just like I don't hate/judge/blame others by whatever race/color of skin/culture they come from or have. Everyone starts off with a blank slate, and if I hate someone, its because that specific one person has proven themselves to be a piece of rotting shit not worth my time, energy, or effort and I stop caring about what happens to them and just drop them from my life because its not worth the effort. But that is still on a case by case basis. Not lumping everyone in as a whole, or not liking and blaming them for something that someone else did that was potentially even remotely related to them, or something an ancestor did.

There's a VERY big difference between those two. I'm not saying people can't or shouldn't be racist against whites. There are some of us who are complete assholes and worthless scum. But guess what-EVERY RACE has those people. White, black, asian, hispanic, middle eastern, whatever-all groups have scum that are worth about as much as the dirt under someone's shoe. But its those individuals who need to shoulder their own issues they've earned. Not the people as a whole of the same color.

Re: Unpopular Opinions.

I don't know how unpopular it is. I've never asked.

I'm of the opinion that capital punishment needs to be greatly expanded. I call it "post-partum abortion". It's not a question of rights, liberty or privilege. It's a simple mathematical, social, cultural and humanitarian equation. It involves very precise definitions, a total lack of ambiguity, perspective and subjectivity.

Just for convenience, however, everyone will have to trust me, on the decency, fairness/appropriateness, and the process itself, go ahead and approve my plan, legislate it, and trust that it is not a tyrannical movement, dictatorship ploy, or personal vendetta, even. Just consider it "pest control".

LOL you'll probably be waiting forever.

We're at the point now where you might get WWI, because everyone is starting to accept that everyone was the bad guy in WWI.

I want to join the Thalmor in Skyrim because those high elves are snooty and I like it.

My husband would agree with you.

I, on the other hand, am a Nord at heart and have made it my mission for the last ten years to systematically destroy snooty High Elves. Alas, it seems that I didn't do a good enough job at killing Mannimarco and he will soon make his diabolical return.

Needless to say I shall not be siding with the Aldermi Dominion in TES Online.

Re: Unpopular Opinions.

Now its my turn:

I Like Nickelback music,

I've been leaning towards the idea of an absolute monarchy (or at lease one were the King and Queen can do something for country.)

I think that it is easy for the wrong guy to get into a position of power within government.

I wish everyone would shut up about their childhood being ruined by George Lucas, the Star Wars Prequels, and the fridge scene from Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. (I've only seen parts of the last one.)

I believe that the environmental movement is not all its cracked up to be.

If you think that's an unpopular opinion...

I like Theory of a Deadman.

Uh... I think you meant "sister", didn't you?

I like Nickelback music but really have no opinion on the group. Whereas, there's other groups that I like the people but the music is rather blah.
